<<Btw, niggardly equates to "miserly" and is some 400+ years old. It has a Scandinavian origin according to linguistic "experts".>>
The 1946 Webster's I picked up used shows it to be maybe Old English(OE?) , while the Ninth Collegiate confirms 1548 Scandinavian. One should note the spelling of the root word "niggard" with an "a" and ended with "d".
Damn, right, twice today Ron. go buy a couple of oz of gold, a pile of silver, a little HM, NEM, or ABX and come on over to the evil side.
